    Sick chicken HELP

    I appreciate all your help. We were getting ready to leave to get the corid and I heard her flapping her wings in the kennel I went over to see her head laying sideways and gasping for air. She passed in my hands. We got the stuff to make sure the others done get sick.

    Sick chicken HELP

    okay thank you very much! would it be necessary to have the rest of my flock drink it as well? or not unless they show signs of the same thing? I have her separated right now in a kennel in my house. I appreciate your help!

    Sick chicken HELP

    I felt her crop and it feels empty. I will look over all her skin and see if there is any bugs. I did not see any this morning but did not look over her whole body.

    they look great!! I still have a few months before my lil ladies start laying but when I do I will post my pics too. I ended up with old kitty litter buckets because they are square and seemed a little roomier, plus the lids are already set up to cover 1/3 of the bucket. :) LOVE seeing...

    Is having a Rooster necessary?

    Thank you everyone for the great advice! In the beginning I told my family if we ended up with Roo's we weren't going to keep them, I just never realized how incredibly attached I would get to my chickens. We decided to go ahead and get him to his new home tomorrow. I am sad but Very grateful...
